Magical Mistletoe Spell

Druids used the magic of mistletoe for festivals throughout the year, including Midsummer
and Yule. Evergreens
were considered magical because they didn’t wither away each year like other plants,
making them seem immune
from death. Mistletoe also seemed to defy nature by growing in the upper branches of
trees rather than on the ground.
The Druids called it "all-heal" because of its potent healing properties and its use as a
fertility aid. Mistletoe that grew
atop oak trees in sacred groves was considered particularly powerful. Call on the magic
of this wonderful plant by
threading a string of small white Christmas lights through the upper branches of a tree
at Yule or at any time of year.
